These reasons:
Server maintenance drains grml developer time. Easier to rsync and
let others babysit servers.
Grml project pays for bandwidth that could be free -- or, relies on
university resources that will not last forever as folks graduate,
school policies change, etc.
Bandwidth could be much larger and better distributed.
Current mirrors are geographically concentrated (single point/region
of failure). FYI Sourceforge recently opened a mirror in Australia
and has numerous mirrors in the United States. To my knowledge grml
has none in these regions.
